<p> <strong> CARRIAGE </strong> . This word is always used in the AV [Note: Authorized Version.] in the literal sense of ‘something carried,’ never in the modern sense of a vehicle used for carrying. Thus &nbsp; Acts 21:15 ‘we took up our carriages’ (RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘baggage’). </p>

In the Revised Version (British and American) and the American Standard Revised Version these are translated by the more modern expressions "goods," "baggage," or "the things that you carried." In &nbsp;1 Samuel 17:20 the King James Version margin"place of the carriage" occurs as the equivalent of "trench." The [[Hebrew]] <i> ''''' ma'gālāh ''''' </i> may mean "the place of wagons" as translated in the Revised Version (British and American), as it is not at all improbable that the encampment was surrounded by the baggage train. </p>
